Chapter 44 Chapter 44 "Since he wants to find evil so badly...
"Since he wants to find the devil so badly, and he's sure to find you, and you happen to be near my garden," Bai Tianming said thoughtfully to Apos, "Why don't you come to my place?"
"Am I going alone?" Apos opened his eyes wide, a little surprised. He couldn't let go of his companions.
Logically, they should have gone together, but if they had gone with him, and he had been found by Boaz, it might have led to them being implicated. It might have been a good thing that they did not go with him.
Apos thought for a split second, then lowered his eyes and said, "Alright, I'll go with you. But I need to tell my companions that the mission will have to be postponed again."
Bai Tianming nodded and said, "We should say hello to them." Otherwise, they would think something happened, which would be bad.
Apos walked out and quickly returned: "I've finished speaking. You can leave now."
Bai Tianming took Apos and Sadah back with him, and returned to the flower field through the door opened by Sadah.
The sunlight was brighter, shining on the flower fields. The flowers with buds swayed slightly in the wind, and then exploded and bloomed one after another.
Apos stood on the soil of the flower field, shocked by the beauty. For a moment he even forgot to breathe and could only stand there blankly, with his eyes open, looking at everything in front of him.
He came to his senses when he was about to suffocate. He took a deep breath and felt his chest expand again and his lungs no longer deflated. Then he stopped and felt his legs become a little weak.
Bai Tianming pointed to the stone next to him and said, "You can sit down."
It was an ordinary gray-black stone. The top was flat as if it had been cut by a knife. The bottom was slightly protruding, but it did not affect the fact that it was a stone and very heavy. There was no decoration, but there were flowers and plants hidden at the bottom, covering up the pits in the soil.
Under the sunlight, even such an ordinary stone looked beautiful. When Apos heard Bai Tianming's words, he reached out and touched the stone, as if it was a stray cat squatting by the wall. He felt the stone was slightly warm, which was the temperature of the sunlight, so he sat down.
"Next," Bai Tianming looked up at the sky, "I'm going to settle the score with Boaz."
"What about me?" Sada asked standing nearby.
"I should be back soon," Bai Tianming thought for a moment and smiled at him, "If I don't come back soon, you can come find me, just like before."
Just like before, like a code, Sada liked this and smiled, "Okay."
"By the way, keep an eye on him for me," Bai Tianming didn't look at Apos, but whispered to Sada, "He is the coordinate, we can't lose track."
Sadah nodded: "I understand."
A black space crack suddenly appeared in the sky, like a beautiful blue oil painting that was suddenly torn apart. There was a crackling sound, which was very sharp and piercing, making people frown.
Bai Tianming flew up and hung in the air. There was a corner like a wooden ship stuck in the crack, protruding outwards, like a bulging pointed potato chip.
This thing was still trying to come in through the space crack, and it seemed very flexible. Bai Tianming kicked it and kicked it away from the space crack.
Bai Tianming could vaguely hear a wooden scream coming from outside, followed by a series of very obscene curses. The voice was rough and unclear, as if he was in pain and had no time to care about the accuracy of the language, and he was even a little choked.
This voice was different from the one in the previous communication, and it could be confirmed that it was not made by Boaz.
Bai Tianming dived into the space crack, and after entering, he grabbed the two ends of the space crack and closed it with his bare hands, forcing it closed.
Sitting on the stone, Apos looked up at the dark scar in the sky, which lay there like a giant centipede. In just a blink of an eye, the scar disappeared quickly.
He knew that the powerful force was stronger than the most effective scar cream, but he couldn't help but feel shocked when he saw everything happening before his eyes. His trembling pupils were filled with yearning and desire for power, and mixed in the gaps in his thoughts was his admiration and respect for Bai Tianming.
Although it was a challenge for Sadah to see Apos admire Bai Tianming so much, seeing Apos sitting so calmly on the stone, Sadah became quiet when he thought that in order to wake him up from that shock, he would have to find something else for him to do.
At the same time, Bai Tianming was completely exposed in the dark and dangerous environment of the space crack. Pointed horns grew on his forehead, and behind him were a pair of huge black wings. His tail was hidden in the shadows, shaking gently.
Among the large number of meteorites, he soon discovered a large group of wooden ships hovering not far away.
There were densely packed wooden boats, with a huge ship like a castle in the front and a group of smaller boats at the back. These wooden boats were spread across the dark space like meteorites, and were extremely concealed. They were almost impossible to spot at first glance, until the huge black eyes on both sides of the wooden boats blinked gently.
The ships, like shrill parrots, opened their eyes wide and suddenly shouted, "Someone is coming! It's the devil! The devil is coming! The devil is coming!"
With uniform and sharp sounds, the fleet changed from a rectangle to a sharp triangle, and the first ship in the first row at the front was the largest ship.
It was also a most gorgeous ship, crawling with all sorts of things: scarlet starfish, gray octopuses, jet-black cuttlefish, lush green kelp, bumpy barnacles, colorful corals, bloody handprints, sunken and scorched marks from artillery fire, drooping chains, and soft rope ladders that snaked down from the ship.
Compared to a ship with nothing on it, this is really gorgeous. Although it is not very good-looking due to the mix and match, those things crawling around there are obviously not ordinary species.
Because if it were an ordinary thing, it would not survive if it was exposed in the environment of the space crack. When a breeze blew, those things would crack inch by inch and shatter into dry blocks of various colors of pigments. You couldn't even see where the flesh and blood were and where the bones were.
A starfish crawled to the bow of the boat, expanded little by little, and opened its mouth. Its mouth was pitch black, but there were crooked white teeth, as if it looked like a human, but the ship was not familiar with what humans looked like, so its mouth expanded randomly, looking both like and unlike humans, which was very strange.
Boaz's voice came from inside. His voice was still hoarse and cold, with a sense of mockery. It was as if he had taken too much stimulant at all times. There was a suppressed but uncontrollable excitement in his tone: "Demon? A demon? Are you coming out of the old lair or the new one? I have been chasing you for a long time!
You were running around everywhere so fast without any target. It took me a lot of effort to find this area. Now that you show up, I guess your other companions are also nearby, right?
Did the spatial rift I just saw lead you to it? I knew I was right! What are you doing here? Negotiating with me? Killing me? Planning a migration? Bringing your demonic companions with you? Whatever it is! Want to come up and play?
If you're willing to stay outside, I'm going to attack! I suppose that's what you want to do if you stay there?"
Before he finished speaking, the octopus on the boat crawled to the muzzle of the gun and stuffed its body in. Then, after a while of squirming, white teeth grew out of the muzzle, which chewed up the octopus. It then spat out pieces of octopus meat covered in thick black ink, and fired at Bai Tianming with a ping-pong sound.
The ink seemed harmless, but it would definitely stain his clothes. Bai Tianming dodged it, and the piece of octopus meat flew onto a floating meteorite behind him.
The meteorite is uneven, earth-gray in color, very dry, and has cracks of varying sizes on its surface. If nothing unexpected happens, it will float like this for a lifetime until it completely breaks into pieces.
The pitch-black ink fell on the meteorite, and the meteorite suddenly became smaller, like a bowl of evaporated water. Then, the octopus meat came alive and turned into a new little octopus.
The little octopus lay on the small meteorite, with its eyes rolling around, looking at Bai Tianming who was not far away. It opened its mouth and spit out more pieces of meat and ink towards him.
At the same time, the densely packed ships of various sizes on the opposite side crawled out of the octopus, entered the muzzle, and attacked Bai Tianming. The sky and the ground were full of octopus meat pieces.
Bai Tianming boarded the big ship in the front in the blink of an eye. He grabbed the soft rope ladder hanging from the hull. The ladder seemed alive. The moment he grabbed it, it sniffed his scent with the furry thread at the end.
He rolled over and stepped onto the deck of the ship. The rope ladder was lying on the edge of the ship. He looked inside, but didn't find him. He sighed regretfully and lay back down.
Bai Tianming was walking on the boat. The floor under his feet squirmed twice and suddenly got up. Then, every piece of the floor began to move, like a person who had slept for a long time, yawning and stretching his muscles, making crackling sounds and moving slowly, as if every piece of the floor came alive.
Bai Tianming walked into the room on the boat. The room was empty. He walked back to the corridor. There were some octopuses crawling in the corridor and a starfish on the wall.
The starfish, lying on the ceiling, suddenly froze. It opened its jet-black mouth and uttered the voice of Boaz: "Dear guest, since you are allowed aboard, I believe you have something to ask for. Let's talk! What do you think?"
